Tryhard - For Good!

How Tryhard for Good Works:

Phase One (April 25 – May 1):

For the first week of the competition, each of the contenders will be teaming up with the coaches listed below for some hands-on instruction. Here’s where they’ll learn the ins-and-outs of Heroes of the Storm, sharpen their competitive skills, and get their Hero League game faces on!

Phase Two (May 2 – 16):

The gloves come off! For the next two weeks, each competitor will claw their way to the top of the Hero League solo queue ladder with no more assistance from the coaches. Good luck!

Follow Along!

Tune in to your favorite streamers’ Twitch channels to learn alongside them during Phase One, and keep up with their progress as they climb the Hero League ladder during Phase Two! Find links to each streamer’s channel in the Competitors and Coaches sections below.

Was watching Dunktrain yday and he gave some top notch advice to Scarra. Specifically something along the lines of "I always vote supports at the end so they feel good and play supports, meaning I don't have to play them". Solid Gold.
